The Department of Basic Education (DBE) has released the final Matric Exam Timetable for the October/November 2025 exam period. The class of 2025 can now plan ahead for these important final exams.


Your matric exam number is an important detail you’ll need for accessing your results or completing forms. If you've misplaced it, don’t worry. Here’s a simple guide to help you find it.
